Hi

I have the menus from the dining room and the white room .i can pick a few choices out if you like.Ramblas has a nice 3course lunch for 5pounds also the tapas are nice .good choice of different spanish wines.

We had the same breakfast menu in the waterside cafe for the 14nights,,usual fry up ,cold cuts ,cereal. The in cabin menu is quite good with somethings free.We didn,t eat in East but heard good reports.

Entertainment wise the Pirate deck party was the best.We are not really show fans but did go to a couple and they were the best I have ever seen.

She is a lovely ship and hopefully you will have a wonderfull time.

Oh don,t forget to have a toffee apple in the coffee bar.

happy cruising Kay
